Once you get in, it's more or less impossible to get modders out.

Nintendo cannot write magic. No matter how much they try, they can only write ones and zeros and there is always a way to hack those ones and zeros.

The more they hack the fixs, the more 'security specific' updates we will get. Wastes everyones time and wastes what could have been an update with something useful in it.

especially those who DON'T download the homebrew. Lots of pointless PSP updates for me!

Half of the functionality of the PSP is there primarily because hackers put it there first. When the hacking community does something new, Sony (or whatever first party company) must reciprocate in order to keep up.

For example, hackers found a way to use Wipeout Pure as a web browser. Later, Sony added their own web browser.

Hackers found a way to have the PSP emulate the PS1. Later, Sony re-engineered old PS1 games for use on the PSP.

Hackers found a way to unlock the cpu speed. Later, Sony added the option to unlock the cpu speed.

In all of these cases, Sony was forced to add the functionality in order to keep up with the hacking community. So while they may put out all the "security fixes" they want, they are being forced by these hackers to add new and exciting features (or at least formalize existing ones) to entice users to their proprietary operating system. Even if you don't download homebrew, you're still a beneficiary of the hacking scene.

The PS1 games are emulated using Sony's official emulator on the PSP. Sony brought PS1 emulation to the PSP first. Hackers just unlocked use of all non-PSN PS1 games.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos21d ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger8821d ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
